Real World Testimonials from Leading Photographers

I can count the number of labs I trust my film to on two fingers ... and when it comes to B+W, only one. These guys are committed to the quality of their work and they really bend over backwards to make it right for their clients. Better yet, they’re NICE!

— Rhea Anna

Edgar develops my transparencies and black and white and he always gets things right. I’ve never really trusted any other service. And he’s a good sort too, and that helps. And my colleagues can see the difference: “One by one we held the transparencies up to the light. I was captivated by what I saw - the photographic process had seemingly concentrated the beauty of the places we had photographed.” (Kristina Pickford)

— Richard Mahoney

My mountain landscape projects rely on a huge amount of research, a window of a couple of days per year to get the shot and some monster hikes. I cannot afford to loose those images due to poor and streaky processing of 5x4 sheet film. Several United Kingdom labs let me down in the past. What a relief to discover Praus Productions - I now confidently send film by registered international mail and have it returned USPS Priority.

— Henry Iddon

It’s no secret that Praus has the cleanest, most consistent processing around. Art directors love the custom prints in my portfolio, and Edgar has always come through in a pinch.

— Walter Colley

After I took my first roll of black-and-white film to Praus, I realized that they processed it better than I ever could. I’ve gone 15 years without processing my own film – Praus gets it all.

— Forest McMullin

My portrait and fashion work depends on doing accurate clip tests and making slight push or pull adjustments to the film’s processing. Sometimes I’ll have a dozen different tests running at the same time. Praus keeps things organized, and they’ve never let me down.

— Antonino Barbagallo

In spite of our distance, working with Praus Productions feels like a partnership. We discuss the work over the phone and via email, they overnight me tests and evaluations – it works great.

— Nick Williams, Corning Museum of Glass

I’m an anal-retentive fussbudget. Praus is the only photo lab I’ve found that’s “good enough.” I scan my film - it’s always clean, which is more than I can say for other lab’s results.

— Frank Petronio

And finally, a word from our favorite customer:

Because of Praus Productions’ tremendous attention to detail and customer service, I have great peace of mind that all of my negatives will be handled with the best care. I live in Alaska ... 5,000 miles away from Rochester, but I ship all of my film to Praus Productions.
